Date: Thu, 3 Jul 97 19:26:39 CDT Subject: IHF Report on Albanian Elections Albanian elections reflect will of the people; Future government must improve human rights record International Helsinki Federation: Greek Helsinki Monitor press release 1 July 1997 Tirana 1 July 1997. Four major human rights groups stated today that the parliamentary elections of 29 June 1997 in Albania were conducted in a general free and fair manner and called upon the future government to substantially improve Albanian's human rights record and re-establish the rule of law. The Vienna-based International Helsinki Federation for Human Rights (IHF) and three of its affiliates, the Albania Helsinki Committee in Tirana, Human Rights Watch/Helsinki in New York and the Norwegian Helsinki Committee in Oslo monitored the elections in a number of major cities and smaller town including Tirana, Durres, Lushnje, Kavaje, Kruja, Bathore and surrounding areas. Based on our observations and consultations with OSCE election monitors, local NGOs and journalists , we conclude that the elections reflect the political will of the Albanian electorate. Some irregularities were observed, such as incidents of intimidation, incomplete voting lists and a few reported acts of violence including one tragic death. These incidents should be investigated by Electoral Commissions and the police and those found to be responsible should be held accountable. But we believe that these irregularities were not sufficient to question the validity of the vote as a whole.

Trial Overview Hot Topics: Macedonia March 1998 In Kosovo, Albanians, most of whom were Muslims, constituted around 90 percent of the 2 million-strong population. However, although Serbs amounted for only a small percentage of the population, the province was considered to be the historic Serb homeland. The current Yugoslav (and former Serbian) President, Slobodan Milosevic, had risen to prominence in 1987 on a promise to protect Kosovo's Serbian minority. The crackdown appeared to enjoy the support of most Serbs, including the Serbian opposition, which opposed Kosovo's separation from Serbia. September 1991 In a referendum held on Sept. 8 in Macedonia 75 per cent of the registered electorate of 1,400,000 went to the polls; they were boycotted by many of the Albanians who made up 25 per cent of the republic's population. Results showed that 95 per cent had voted in favour of a "sovereign and independent Macedonia with a right to enter a union of sovereign states of Yugoslavia". No immediate secession was envisaged, although this option was endorsed by the hardline nationalist Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization-Democratic Party for Macedonian National Unity, the biggest party in the Macedonian parliament. On Sept. 19 the Prime Ministers of Bulgaria (which regarded Macedonians as Bulgars) and Greece held talks in Athens with Milosevic on the future of Macedonia.

TROUBLED TERRITORY June 5, 1998 Fighting continued today in Kosovo as ethnic Albanian leaders called off talks with the Serbian government. An offensive by Serb security forces against Albanian separatists has displaced about 10,000 people. Many of them have headed for Albania. Another 50 Kosovo Albanians have been killed and about 200 are missing since the Serb offensive began a week ago. The NewsHour has the report. CHARLES KRAUSE: The latest round of fighting in Kosovo began last week, when Serbian security forces began clearing tens of thousands of ethnic Albanians from their homes and villages inside Kosovo along the Albanian border. According to western observers, the Serb offensive is aimed at depopulating the Decani region south and west of Kosovo's capital city Pristina. There, the Serbs reportedly hoped to create a depopulated no-man's-land along the border to try to stop the flow of weapons and other support from Albania to separatist guerrillas inside Kosovo. The guerrillas, who call themselves the Kosovo Liberation Army, have used the border area as a stronghold for their fight against Serbia for Kosovo's independence. Long resentful of Serb domination, an estimated 90 percent of Kosovo's 2 million people are ethnically Albanian. Yet, Kosovo remains a province of Serbia. The fighting has intensified since March, when the separatist guerrillas began to openly challenge Serb military forces stationed in Kosovo. UN and other western observers estimate that even before the latest defensive, fighting in Kosovo had left more than 250 dead and thousands more wounded and homeless. Since last week, the situation has worsened. There are reports of at least 50 more ethnic Albanians killed and hundreds more missing.

This Conference is a very important meeting which will assist of course, the development of the multilateral trading system. Respectful of the role of the WTO in the process of globalization of the world economy and international trade, I wish to emphasize the importance that Albania's Government gives the accession of our country in the WTO, considering this membership one of the priorities of its foreign economic policy. We appreciate better now the WTO, and its objectives and functions. I would like to mention some issues concerning: - The evolution and current status of Albania's programme to establish a market economy; - the role of international trade policy in Albania's economic reform programme; - Albania's prospective membership in the World Trade Organization; how our Government sees membership supporting its economic policy objectives, and how it would expect to fulfil the requirements of membership, recognizing that this membership involves obligations as well as rights.

Dependence on China, 1961-78 Albania Table of Contents In 1962 the Albanian government introduced an austerity program to keep the country's sputtering economy from stalling entirely. Official public appeals to cut costs and conserve resources and equipment netted a claimed 6 percent savings. The government also initiated a campaign of "popular consultation," asking individuals to submit suggestions for improving self-sufficiency. Years of state terror and still-rigid central control, however, had undermined the Albanians' willingness to assume personal responsibility. Party hard-liners, fearing they would lose their positions to a younger generation of more technically sophisticated managers, sabotaged cost-cutting measures. The government launched a program to increase the amount and quality of arable land by terracing hillsides and draining swamps. A new phase of collectivization was initiated. However, agricultural output grew only 22 percent over the entire five years instead of the planned 72 percent. Overall industrial production grew a mere 14 percent in 1964 and 1965. In emulation of China's Cultural Revolution, which was designed to rekindle the revolutionary fervor of the masses, Hoxha prescribed a regular rotation of managers to prevent "bureaucratic stagnation," "bureaucratism," "intellectualism," "technocratism," and a whole neologistic lexicon of other "negative tendencies." The campaign, called the Cultural and Ideological Revolution, also prescribed the replacement of men with women in the party and state administrations.
